Kona Cloud Forest Sanctuary Hawai’i Island

Guiding Wellness & Educational Nature Experiences Since 1982
Forest Eco-Tours • Sound Baths • Yoga • Reforestation • Day Retreats

Connecting Humanity Back To Nature

Kona Cloud Forest Sanctuary sprouted in 1982 as a passionate reforestation project from the hands of our Grandpa Norman — and today, it flourishes as a biodiverse jungle and a sanctuary of transformation.

As the forest has grown, the heart of our mission has remained rooted in one purpose: connecting humanity back to nature.

Through our enriching eco-tours, sound healing, yoga, malama ‘āina volunteer events, and more, we guide you into a world of awe-inspiring connection, education, transformation and inner peace.

OUR VALUES





Stewardship


We care for the nahele (forest) as our ‘ohana — restoring, protecting, and tending this land with reverence and aloha as our kuleana (responsibility) for future generations.





Education


Rooted in the legacy of a living classroom, we cultivate curiosity and deepen understanding — guiding every guest to learn from the forest and the wisdom it holds.





Wellness


We believe nature heals. Through mindful immersion, sound, movement, and stillness, we offer pathways to balance, renewal, and inner peace.





Community


We grow through connection — welcoming all into a space of shared purpose, mutual respect, and deepened relationship with the ʻāina and each other.
